Lemon Duck Cryptojacking Botnet Changes Up Tactics

Cybercrime group behind Lemon Duck has added the ProxyLogon group of exploits to its bag of tricks, targeting Microsoft Exchange servers. Lemon Duck targets victims computer resources to mine the Monero virtual currency, with self-propagating capabilities and a modular framework that allows it to infect additional systems that become part of the botnet.
